Estimation of false amplitude anomalies on seismics from Ocean Bottom acquisition (OBS/OBC) from converted waves in 3D anisotropic models

Ideally, a seismic data cube should contain amplitudes that are proportional to the reflectivity of the subsurface. In practice, the seismic amplitudes used for interpretation are highly dependent on other factors such as survey geometry, instrumentation, filtering and muting of prestack data, m...
